Smoke Gray Fireline - 50 Yards (4LB Test)

New Smoke Gray Fireline is here by popular demand. This pre-waxed thread is braided and made of highly durable material. Sunlight will not affect the color or strength of this material, so your design will never feel the need to be shy in public! It has been noted by many beaders as the strongest fiber per diameter ever created. This spool contains 50 yards of material and is rated for use with up to 4 pounds of resistance. This particular spool also comes in a 6 pound version if you're looking for something a little heavier. The Smoke Gray coloring is wonderful for designs using darker components. If using light crystals, go ahead and keep a Crystal Fireline on hand. This versatile stringing material should be a staple in your beading box.

Pros: Size, Versatile, Ease of Use, Quality, Color
"No tangle, therefore you can use longer lenghts in your beadwork which means less needle threading plus the ends do not fray like some other threads. Does not need conditioning first. I don't know how I beaded without it."

"This thread is very user friendly; strong, easy to thread, fine enough for multiple passes through the smallest seed beads and durable for using with crystals. The smoke color works with all but the lightest colors."
